<p>"As I mentioned, I came home and wrote an email to Dr. Dulac, the Chair of the Dept. of Molecular and Cellular Biology at Harvard. I’m absolutely appalled that this young man, who disavows a century and a half of empirical data and repudiates the basic principles of science, was given a PhD by one of the most prestigious universities in the country. First Kurt Wise, now this kid. As I told Dr. Levin, “One is an anomaly. Two is already becoming a habit!”</p>
<p>I don’t know if this was PZ or someone else but this type of response is far from anything relating to concern about a biology program’s particular teaching style.</p>
<p>Face it, there are people out there who go around smugly congratulating themselves on having it all figured out while at the same time trampling on the free speech rights of others. They can dress it up and call it whatever they want, but at the end of the day, these people don’t want to give a public forum to anything other than their own bitter worldview.</p>
